The temperature of the sauna must be set so that the user sweats while seated on the bench and feels comfortable. There is no right or wrong sauna temperature, as everyone has a different preference, taking age and state of health into account.
-
If the sauna temperature is high (80–100 °C), the air may feel dry, even when it is humidified by throwing water onto the stones. The steam will feel sharp.
-
In lower sauna temperatures (50–60 °C), you can use plenty of sauna water. The air will feel humid and soft. The combination of a low temperature and plenty of water works best when using a heater with a large amount of stones.
